History
In 1914, Dayro d-Qubo (today called Karagöl) was inhabited by 100 Assyrians, according to the list presented to the Paris Peace Conference by the Assyro-Chaldean delegation. There were ten Assyrian families in 1915. They belonged to the Syriac Orthodox Church. It was located in the kaza (district) of Midyat. Amidst the Sayfo, the villagers were escorted to safety at Hah by Agha Hajo of the Kurtak clan.
95 Turoyo-speaking Christians in 15 families resided at Dayro d-Qubo in 1966. The village was forcibly evacuated by the Turkish army in 1995 due to the Kurdish–Turkish conflict and its population moved to the nearby village of Beth Kustan. By 2003, five families had returned to Dayro d-Qubo and had begun building two new houses and restoring the village's church that had been vandalised by Kurds. In 2013, the village was inhabited by 4 Assyrian families.
